Midnight Thoughts

55. Maze

a pale face
while inside
the puzzle maze -
fighting for days
against the rushing tides
of haunting mem'ries
that she can't erase;

there's agony to carry -
mountains of rocks
placed on her shoulders;
running away
through the borders
while carrying
the heavy boulders.

the queen of spade
on an escapade -
bricks of stone
curtains of steel -
beneath the wall
is a view to kill,
nothing to feel
except to fret;
she's catching her breath
while being chased
by her darkest regrets;
💙
